[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So here's a related question. In DC, any decent public or charter school has a lottery process to get in. And its a total Waiting for Superman moment of anguish and torment. Does this happen at all in MoCo? If so, are there elementary schools in Takoma Park, Silver Spring, Kensington, etc that do/do not require lottery? I don't want to make a move just to find myself in lottery hell again.[/quote] The language immersion programs are lottery-based and I think some parents enter the lottery based on their perception of the home school as much as their desire for immersion, but I think generally MoCo schools are much more alike than different (and differences in test scores are attributable to SES etc., not to quality of the teaching).
